Status2, Packet Type | Paxar guide

The following syntax is the response for a Job 3 request. You may need to press FEED before the job response is returned.

Syntax {J,"Status1 A,B","Status2

A,B,C,D,E","FMT-1","BCH-2"}

"Status1 A,B" Status1 A contains the field number, in the format or batch, where an error was found. If the error is not in the format or batch, a "0" is returned.

Status1 B contains an error number, which represents the actual printer error. The error numbers can be found in Chapter 8, "Troubleshooting."

Example {J,"2,612",}

2 is the field number where an error was found. 612 is the error number, indicating that data is missing or does not match the format definition for that field.

Error numbers found in Status1 B, always have a value equal to or greater than 500. These are considered very serious errors.

"Status2 A,B,C,D,E" contains the packet type, field type, field

	number, parameter, and error number.
Status2	represents the MPCLII packet that the error
A- Packet Type	occurred on. The packet could be Format (F),
	Batch (B), Check Digit (A), Graphic (G), or
	Font (W).
Status2	represents the MPCLII field that the error
B- Field Type	occurred on. If the packet has no fields,
	Status2 A will be replicated. If the error
	occurs before the field is identified a question
	mark is sent. Since the batch data is
	variable, a D is sent to indicate data.
